Feb 18, 2011 at 22:05 comment added lindes @decasteljau: Some guidelines are inferior to others, though your point is basically valid. @zzzzBov: Ahh, but they both are, just with different meanings of those two words ("rule" as "something regarded as a normative example"; "theory" as "a well-substantiated explanation of some aspect of the natural world" (both selected from a dictionary app on my phone)). And in fact Newtonian physics has been shown to be "wrong"; you get more accurate predictions with Einstein's relativity... But people still use Newton's rules because they're "close enough" in many situations and much easier to apply.
Feb 18, 2011 at 20:34 comment added zzzzBov Isn't it interesting how the "Rule of Thirds" and "Theory of Gravity" aren't?

Feb 18, 2011 at 19:50 comment added decasteljau Don't forget: there aren't any strict rule to follow. The term "rule" in "rule of third" is so wrong. Those are guidelines, not rules. Just go as you feel is the best for you and your subject. No guideline is inferior to another. Rules are meant to be broken anyway.
